last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
Charlotte bit her lip nervously as her car drove past the gates of the Gerano mansion. Her anxiety increased as they got closer and closer to Sebastian's house.

She prayed that he shouldn't have gotten home. Her prayer was however not answered as she could see Sebastian standing in front of the entrance to the mansion.

Marcelo parked the car and got out of it. One of the men who was standing guard outside the mansion rushed and opened the door for Charlotte.

If it was up to her, she would wait in the car until Sebastian got tired of standing and went in but she couldn't do so.

After mustering all the courage she could gather, Charlotte stepped out of the car and walked up to Sebastian.

"Hi," she greeted in a low voice.

Sebastian looked at her but didn't acknowledge her greeting. This made Charlotte even more nervous.

Sebastian grabbed Charlotte by her wrist and pulled her to stand beside him. He then turned to Marcelo who was standing in front of him with his head bowed.

    "Yes we have. That was one of the reasons why I was calling you. We found out that it was a woman who was behind the post," he said."She is a die hard fan of Amy Williams. That must have been the reason she defamed you," Henry revealed."Are you sure that you found the right person?" Charlotte asked as she didn't want to jump to conclusions."I'm a hundred percent positive that we found the right person," Henry answered. "What do you want to do?" He asked.Charlotte sighed. "I don't know yet brother. We both know the punishment for those who cross us but the thing is that I promised myself I wouldn't go back to that life," said Charlotte. "Just cause you changed doesn't mean the world will change, Charlotte. The longer you keep quiet, the more people mess with you," Henry said. "Take Amy for example, the only reason she still messes with you is because you haven't taught her a lesson yet and I'm still solid in my opinion that you should let me take care of her.""Brother, Amy's life

    "Wow, this woman has some guts. She lives in a residential apartment owned by the Brooks yet, she still has the guts to defame me; I like her," Charlotte commented as the car halted to a stop in front of a residential complex.The investigation done by Henry's men led them to find out that she lived in this building. Two security guards who recognized his car rushed to them and opened the doors for them. "Thank you," Charlotte said and dipped her hand into her bag to give the guards a tip."Thank you Ma'am," the two guards said in happiness. The tip she had given them was more than their salary of two months combined.All eyes fell on them immediately as they entered the building. All the workers were shocked to see that Charlotte had come there. Henry always came from time to time to inspect the building but Charlotte had never been there.The women who were present started trying to scrutinize Charlotte but they couldn't find anything wrong with her. After all, she was the number

    “Please, don’t leave me,” Sebastian pleaded as he buried his head in Charlotte’s chest. “I promise you I’m not going to leave you,” Charlotte said as she ran her fingers through his hair, trying to get him to calm down. “I’m here,” she kept on whispering to him and it was very effective in calming Sebastian down as his breathing started returning to normal. He had stayed beside his phone from the time Charlotte left the house with Henry. He didn’t realize how much he liked having her around until he saw her leaving. She had brought about a wave of fresh air and light into his boring life and he was not prepared to go back to that boring life. He became apprehensive when he couldn’t reach Charlotte. He thought Henry had taken her away from him forever. This thought led to old memories and old wounds opened up which led to him having a severe panic attack; one he hadn’t had in years. “Sebastian, come let’s get you to the bed,” Charlotte said. Even though he had calm down, he was s

    Sebastian didn’t feel the warmth he had been lying on anymore. He frowned as he was unable to sleep anymore. He slowly opened his eyes and was met with the familiar ceiling of his room. He removed the duvet and sat up on the bed. Sebastian wasn’t feeling a headache any longer, thankfully. He ran his fingers through his head, and tried to remember what had happened last night. The last thing he remembered was calling Charlotte numerous times but she did not answer. ‘What happened after that?’ he asked himself and closed his eyes trying to remember what happened next. He remembered having a panic attack. In order to control it before it got worse, he left his study and headed to his room to use his medication. He could feel the panic attack worsening and so, he overdosed himself.He was lucky that he didn’t die from the overdose and only had a fever. The effects also caused him to feel drowsy and unlike himself it was like he was drunk. “Shit!” Sebastian exclaimed in horror as he

    “Why are you so nervous?” Victoria asked Charlotte. She had noticed that from the time they had left the Gerano mansion, Charlotte had been fidgeting and was lost in her thoughts. “I’m just thinking about the fact that the wedding is in seven days. I’m starting a new journey and just thinking about it makes me nervous,” Charlotte confessed. Victoria put her hand over Charlotte and squeezed it lightly to comfort her. “I know how you feel. I was also nervous when I was about to get married to Alexander but I can assure you that you have nothing to worry about,” she said. ‘I’m getting married to Sebastian, everything about him worries me,” Charlotte thought to herself. Victoria smiled as she could tell what was running through Charlotte’s mind. “I know Sebastian can be a bit annoying and cold…” “A bit?” Charlotte blurted out. She gasped and quickly used her hand to cover her mouth. She had not meant to say that out loud. “I’m sorry,” she mumbled. “It’s okay,” Victoria said. “I’m no

    “Everything else seems to be in order,” Anne said as she examined the dress one last time to be sure she hadn’t missed anything. “Yes, everything is in order, can I please take it off now?” Charlotte pleaded. This was the third and final dress she was wearing but her patience was running thin. They had been at it for over three hours. She finally understood what Diego meant when he asked her earlier, if she had anything planned for the day. These three women were a terrible combination sent to irritate her. Along with trying out her dresses, Victoria wanted to kill many birds with one stone and so, she called in the hair stylist, jewelry designer and a bunch of other people who were going to be involved in getting her ready on her ‘big day.’ Her mother and Victoria had insisted that she would style her hair three different times for the three dresses and so, they had to pick out three different hairstyles they thought were suitable for the dress. Due to the fact that each of the

    “What do you want from me, mom?” Sebastian asked, straight to the point. He had a lot of things to do and he wasn't ready to listen to his mother's scolding.“Trust me Sebastian, the list of things I want from you is endless,” Victoria answered. Sebastian took a deep breath, trying to get himself to calm down. “Why did you call me?” He rephrased his question. “I called to talk about you and Charlotte,” Victoria replied. It was just as Sebastian had predicted. Hearing Charlotte’s name made his blood boil as he was reminded of a fight he was trying so hard to forget. “I’m busy mom, I do not have time to chit- chat with you about Charlotte.”“Charlotte is going to be your wife Sebastian, your work shouldn’t be more important than her,” Victoria scolded. She really wanted Charlotte to be happy and her son was not making things easier for her. He needed to understand that Charlotte was an exception to all the strict rules he had in his life. Sebastian touched the bridge of his nose as

    “Where is Charlotte?" Sebastian asked."What do you mean by 'where is Charlotte?'" Victoria replied innocently.Sebastian took a deep breath to calm himself down. If not for the fact that Victoria was his mother, he wouldn't have hesitated to ask his men to torture the answer out of her. "Charlotte went out with you this morning and she hasn't come home yet. Where is she?" Victoria smiled widely at the fact that Sebastian had already accepted the fact that his house was also Charlotte's house. That was a huge progress in their relationship."What do you mean she hasn't come home yet?" Alexander asked in agitation. He turned and gave his wife a questioning look. She glared at him in return and he immediately calmed down as he understood that Victoria was pulling one of her stunts."You didn't care about her a few hours ago, why do you suddenly care? What changed?" Victoria asked in a mocking tone."I do not have time for your childish games. Where the hell is my wife?!" Sebastian ask

    Sebastian paced outside his room nervously. The doctor had been in there for a while and each passing second was torture for him. He would have preferred for Charlotte to be taken to the hospital but she regained consciousness as they were on their way there and she vehemently refused to go there. They called the doctor and requested for him to treat her at home. He took her samples and sent them to the hospital. The result was delivered to the doctor about five minutes ago but Sebastian didn’t know what the report was and that drove him on edge. A hand on his shoulder made him turn around and he saw it was his father.“She’ll be fine,” Alexander said.The doctor came out of the room and all of the family members gathered around him. “Doctor, how is she?'' Sebastian asked.“She is fine, Mr Gerano,” the doctor answered and Sebastian heaved a sigh of relief as he felt the knot in his chest loosen. “You can see her now. She has something she wants to tell you after which it is very i

    “Did you miss me?” Charlotte asked. Beside her stood Diego and Jonathan who had their guns pointed at Amy and the goon who held a gun to Sebastian's head respectively. Sebastian was not expecting to see them there but irregardless, he was happy that they managed to find him..He looked at Charlotte and she looked at him back. However, there was no warmth in her eyes, rather she looked at him coldly and with a murderous intent. “How did you find us?” Amy asked. She had still not recovered from her shock. “Well the mole told us where you were,” Charlotte answered. “Mole?” Amy repeated in confusion. “Yes, mole,” another voice said in the background. He walked up to them and Amy gasped when she saw who it was. “Hello Amy,” Jimmy greeted with a grin on his face. “What? Are you shocked to see me on their side?” he asked mockingly.“B-but y-you told me that y-you wanted revenge,” Amy stuttered as she was still trying to process the fact that her plan had failed all thanks to Jimmy who h

    Charlotte slowly opened her eyes to let them adjust to the bright light. She groaned and sat up. She then looked around and saw that she was in her room, but how and when did she get there?It took a few moments for the memories of what had happened to return to Charlotte. ‘Sebastian, how dare you?!’ she exclaimed in anger. That asshole ordered Jonathan to drug her. Both of them would pay for doing that to her, but first, she needed to find him. Charlotte got down from the bed and headed downstairs. She didn’t meet a single helper on the way down, and that worried her as the mansion was always filled with helpers. What was going on?She saw Henry comforting a crying Alexia while the rest of her family had gloomy expressions on their faces. “What’s going on here?” she asked. They all turned and looked at her with pity, which made Charlotte worry the most as she could tell from their body language that something terrible had happened. “Where is Sebastian?” she inquired. None of the

    Charlotte woke up when she heard the sound of a door closing. She sat up and saw that Sebastian had just come out of the bathroom. She glanced at the clock beside her bed and saw that it was already eleven o’clock. Damn! Sebastian had worked her up hard all night, not that she was complaining. “You’ve finally woken up,” Sebastian said. He walked up to her and kissed her on the forehead. “I feel sore,” Charlotte complained as she stood up. Of course, she was bound to feel sore, mainly due to the activities they did all night.She was ninety percent sure that Sebastian had gotten her pregnant last night. “Do you want me to take the soreness away,” Sebastian asked and kissed her neck while his hand went down her back. His action made Charlotte's breath get heavier, mainly due to the fact that she wasn’t wearing any clothes. Damn! This guy was a tempter. However, Charlotte refused to fall into his temptation. She gathered all of her strength and pushed him away. “We’re not doing it

    “So, what did he say? Is he coming?” Charlotte asked as soon as Danielle was done speaking to Sebastian.“Of course he is. I told you it would work. He told me to make sure that you do not leave. He even gave me permission to use the guards to make sure you do not leave,” Danielle added. “So all we have to do is wait for him to get here,” Charlotte stated.“Yes and make sure you act convincing enough,'' Danielle reminded. Charlotte chuckled. “Of course, I will.” Twenty minutes later, one of the helpers, which Danielle had stationed at the entrance of the house to inform them when Sebastian arrived, came running upstairs. “Ma’am, sir has arrived.”Charlotte and Danielle immediately jumped down from the bed. “You can go now,” Charlotte instructed.“Are you ready?” Danielle asked.“Yes, I am. Now go to your position," Charlotte urged as she quickly grabbed the suitcase she had already packed her clothes in.“Good luck,” Danielle wished and left the room, locking the door behind her.
